New Detail Trailer

[shadybreal]

Looks very similiar to my floor just different colors. I really like the peg board idea. Thanks for sharing.

Shelves put up in the front. Use these for my 5 gallon pails. I will add another on the bottom for 1 gallon jugs and misc. stuff. I used heavy duty shelves and mounting brackets. Made sure everything was sturdy and braced well. Each shelf is rated at 400 pounds.
When I put them up, one side was ok because it was up against the side of the trailer, but the other side, I needed something so the jugs would not slide off the end. I pulled out my Dremal and got to work. I had to cut some here, score the metal there, and then bend. So, I bent it up to make a side, and man it took some muscle to do it.

Now I have room up front for rubbermaid shelf/drawer things to hold MFs, pads, and other goodies....... Will probably run to Wal Mart and pick some up tonight.



Edit...before I go any further, I will probably insulate the trailer with that styrofoam sheet insulation...

That`s looking pretty good. I too am thinking about converting back to an enclosed next year. Putting my open utility trailer in storage is definitely hurting the moolah on a monthly basis ($180!!)

-Started hanging stuff on the peg board.....Not sure if everything is staying where it is now
-Hung shelf on door. Need something next to it for a dozen spray bottles.
-Put in two, 3 drawer things for my towels and pads. need another one.
-Started putting in a few of my chemicals....

UPDATE.....
New Years Day update...

Racked my brain today on a design for my generator mount. I wanted to mount it ABOVE my pressure washer, to save a little room. Got it all mounted up.
Pressure washer still needs 2 more bolts.
Hose reel bolted down, but no hose on the reel....lol I am thinking of buying a new, longer hose......

Picked up some metal tubing today to make exhaust pipes for the Generator and Pressure Washer. The pipes will run down through the floor, under the trailer.

Vinyl will also be added before the end of the week. I gave the go ahead to make it up. I will be sitting down woth the guy tomorrow to finish up a few small details and make a few minor changes....
